I made a mini with an orange pill bottle, pen and bbq sparker. I've fired it at least 30 times (using hairspray) and the cap hasn't blown off once. I used the cap from a hi-liter and a cotton ball to make a silencer and now I can fire spitballs at people in my cafeteria at school without anyone knowing what's happening.

i think i know the perfect jar for this, it's about 4" and has a cap with heaps of threads, It's a jar for Omega 3 pills (fish oil) might work, i dunno if i should make one but that would prolly be the go!

Yes a silencer! Brilliant! Once I get my hands on the materials, I'm gonna make one out of a shampoo bottle. Preferably one of those little kid ones, just for fun. ("Oh look, he has little kid shampoo!" POP! "....dag yo.....")

The silencer I made pretty much cuts the noise in half. Unfortunately my mini started out being about as loud as a .22 rifle, so it is still quite loud. And make sure you get a thick shampoo bottle. Some bottles are made with really thin plastic and could blow.

I made a mini pill bottle shooter and the cap wasn't very good. The first time I shot it there was a big bang and the cap blew off and hit me on the top of my thigh. I had a huge bruise for a week, it hurt like hell.

I made one of these yesterday using an orange pill bottle with childproof cap. Today at school I test fired it out one of the doors, a loud bang resulted, and the cap blew off, hitting me in the ribs. Ouch. So I rebuilt it, using a very flexible plastic bottle with a screw on lid, and the cap hasnt blown off yet. The gun will easily fire a pencil eraser through 10 layers of paper towel from 20ft away, it is quite powerful for its size.
